Icelandic letters in Wordle
The Icelandic alphabet has 32 letters and includes letters English lacks: á, é, í, ó, ú, ý, þ (thorn), æ, ð (eth) and ö, with no c, q, w or z. In the games these accented letters count as their own distinct letters. So á and a (or ö and o) are different tiles.
Tips for learners
- Open with a vowel-rich word to find the vowels fast.
- A grey 'a' does not rule out 'á' — the special vowels are separate.
- Common endings like -ur, -inn and -ana appear a lot.
